[Capricious]

Vote: No Lynch

Does anyone have a plan? We don't know anything about what the shuffling has accomplished, except that we didn't score a goal, which could mean anything. It's looking like all that will happen is no goal on every possession.

[Mastermind of Sin]

Congratulations. This game is officially my last game on Mafiascum for the time being. My only other game just finished, so now I'm down to just this one.

[Lowell]

What a thrilling way to go out...

[ZeekLTK]

lol

[Foolster41]

*sigh* I'm going to do some prodding.

[ZeekLTK]

Don't we already have a majority? There's only 8 of us and 5 have already voted no lynch...

[Foolster41]

Ah. you're right. For some reason I was thinking there was more. Sorry. That's no-lynch.

[Foolster41]

The eagles get the puck. It looks like they have a opening, but barely miss the goal wide. It is now pre-day 8. Please discuss your lineup.

(Also if I somehow missed a end of day scoring result, please let me know.)

Day 6

Right Back: Mos
Left Back: Flameaxe
Centre: TVZ
Right Forward: Jdodge
Left Forward: Zeetlk

Day 6 Result: Eagles get the puck, don't manage to score

Day 7
Goalie: Capricous
Right Back: Shanba
Left Back: Flameaxe
Centre: JDodge
Right Forward: TVZ
Left Forward: Lowell

Day 7 Result: Eagles get the puck, miss wide

Switching out people didn't change the result, so I think our scum is still on the ice. I believe it is one of Capricious, Flameaxe, JDodge, and TVZ. If we're going to score twice with only two days left, we need to lynch that last scum and make sure our lineup is fully working for us. That's the only way we can pull out a win at this point. The other team just lynched a scum, so they only have 2 left among them. This means they have an even greater advantage than they did before, because they are less likely to have a bad lineup. I think we need to take action now. The question is which of those four is our scum. With such little data due to the scum reset, it will be hard to track them down, but we have to try. I think we should keep as many of them off the ice as possible. Capricious is obviously unreplaceable, so we should leave him on the ice for now. Shanba and I can cover the defensive positions, so we can take Flameaxe off the ice. JDodge and TVZ have both claimed Centre, so I believe we should bench whichever of them was on the ice Day 5, since they each had the position in one of Day 6 and Day 7.

The problem is, TVZ hasn't posted since Feb 29, and JDodge hasn't posted since Mar 1. I hope our mod can prod them please so we can get some input out of them.

Lowell and Zeetlk can split the other Forward positions, since each of them had time off the ice during the last two periods. This way we have 2 of our suspicious people off the ice, and we should lynch one of them. If we don't manage to score, we put the other person back in and lynch one of the two that were on the ice this period. I am still leery about ever removing Capricious from the ice, but that is a bridge we will have to cross tomorrow, if we don't manage to score.

My suggested lineup:

Goalie: Capricous
Right Back: Shanba/MoS
Left Back: Shanba/MoS
Centre: TVZ (JDodge was the one on the ice for Day 5 and Day 7)
Right Forward: Zeetlk/Lowell
Left Forward: Zeetlk/Lowell

This leaves JDodge and Flameaxe off the ice for now. I would suggest lynching Flameaxe, because if we do not score and have to take TVZ off the ice, we will still have JDodge there to replace him, giving us a better shot at scoring on the last day to force a tie. If we do score and Flameaxe doesn't come up scum, we can lynch JDodge tomorrow. Either way, if he's scum, he's off the ice now, so hopefully he can't do any damage from there. We'll increase our chances of having a strong lineup by lynching Flameaxe first, barring any significant evidence that any of the other three are more likely scum than Flameaxe.

[ZeekLTK]

Well, I have already said that I think JDodge is the scum, so I definitely support that plan.

Day 6
-------
Goalie: Capricous
Right Back: Mos
Left Back: Flameaxe
Centre: TVZ
Right Forward: Jdodge
Left Forward: Zeetlk

Day 7
------
Goalie: Capricous
Right Back: Shanba
Left Back: Flameaxe
Centre: JDodge
Right Forward: TVZ
Left Forward: Lowell



Hmmm.... I was going to suggest that we missed last time because only one of our offensive players was in position (Lowell), but then if you look at Day 6 it was the exact same set up except I was in instead of Lowell and the "centers" were switched around.

So, I am reconsidering JDodge being scum. Because we basically had the exact same lineup up front for Days 6 & 7 and the exact same result.

The setup was: One center at center, one center at right wing, and one left wing at left wing.

Our defense was basically the same too. A left defender and a "right defender" plus the goalie.

Flameaxe is the only constant...

[ZeekLTK]

Basically what I'm saying is that because we had the exact same result for 2 days in a row, and we did this even though we switched everyone up position-wise (except Flameaxe) it basically proves that:

-TVZ and JDodge are interchangeable (aka they are both centers)
-Lowell and Zeek are interchangeable (aka they are both left wings)
-Shanba and MoS are interchangeable (aka they are both left defenders)

So the scum is one of the two who are not. I think the other team would have scored again by now if Cap was the scum, so it's gotta be Flame.

I'm voting for him when day begins.

[Mastermind of Sin]

Well, I *do* want to lynch him first...

[Flameaxe]

I'm voting for him when day begins.

If you really want to lose that bad, I'll jump on that wagon.

[ZeekLTK]

Well, I *do* want to lynch him first...

Yeah, I was just agreeing with you.

I actually set out to try to show that JDodge was more scummy, but in doing so I found him less scummy and came to the same conclusion that you had about Flame.

[Crub]

Ok then Happy with this?

Right Back: MoS
Left Back: Shanba
Centre: TVZ
Right Forward: Zeetlk
Left Forward: Lowell

[Flameaxe]

No, as defense clearly isn't the problem...durr. Read flavor text?

[ZeekLTK]

We had the exact same result by using 2 completely different offenses. That means the offense is fine, but the overall strength of the team is not strong enough to overcome theirs. That means we had a scum on the ice. Since every person was rotated except you, you're the scum. Good try though. :p

Except us missing a shot has nothing to do with the fucking defense...You're a fucking retard. I suggest you look at your lists again before gimping our defense, losing us the game.
